Palach Memorials

Pictures of (mostly) Tibetans paying respect - memorials of Czechs who self-immolated as a response to the occupation of Czechoslovakia which started 21 August 1968, and its end is marked by 17 November 1989. The first self-immolated was Jan Palach (on pictures the spot where he self-immolated), followed by Jan Zajíc, and Evžen Plocek.
